Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
Stock suspension/stocks. The truxx leveling kit came with shock mount extensions.... Easy to install...
Ride feels a lot like stock. I am going in for allignment tomorrow just to be sure everythings straight.... Small investment considering the price of 5 new tires (did spare too)

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
looks great.
it does look like you need to use some griot's bumper reconditioner on your fading rear bumper. (from you pic)

I always loved that limited orange color.

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
Love that SE orange! The tires look great too, 37's just look right on a H2, like they are supposed to be OE.
I'll second the Griots trim reconditioner, I put on a couple coats in July, granted it's only been about 4 mo but we've been through one snow event with salt on the roads, after a wash it still looks like I just applied it. Great product!

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
Nice. That orange is growing on me. Would really look good without any chrome. Also, get out the heat gun and take those side emblems off.

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
Got the same truck. 37's look good. I like that you left the the LE stock rim. I may consider that for my next set of tires. Will the 37's worsen the gas milage?

I really have not had time to get under the truck and do a full lock to lock turn to check clearance. The weather has been raining since I got them put on.
I had allignment yesterday and wow, what a difference. When I installed the leveling kit, everything went out of wack...
Not worried about the bumper right now, we are expecting snow here in Buffalo this week! Maybe in the spring...
I feel no difference with these tires over the stock ones as far as handling... The pictures don't due it justice. it looks way better in person. When I am sitting at a stoplight I have seen people pointing at the tires... LOVE IT!

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
i would remove them before i even think of rat canning them.
just thinkign of all the work of taping around them just to spray them alone, where as a heat gun and some fishing wire alone would ake care of it.
if anything.. i would remove them first, then spray them, then put them back on

Sure will, down 2-3 mpg from what you see now.

Re: 37's on!!! - crappy pic's here
"Gas mileage"? Was that an option for the H2? Mine didn't come with "gas mileage". Wonder if I can order that from an aftermarket supplier!
